Famous quotes containing the word address:

“It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest. We address ourselves, not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our necessities but of their advantages.”—Adam Smith (17231790)

“Take a red book called TELEPHONE,size eight by four. There it sits.My red book, name, address and number.These are all people that I somehow own.Yet some of these names are counterfeit.”—Anne Sexton (19281974)

“Patience, to hear frivolous, impertinent, and unreasonable applications: with address enough to refuse, without offending; or, by your manner of granting, to double the obligation: dexterity enough to conceal a truth, without telling a lie: sagacity enough to read other peoples countenances: and serenity enough not to let them discover anything by yours; a seeming frankness, with a real reserve. These are the rudiments of a politician; the world must be your grammar.”—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (16941773)
